V8i - convert Enter Data Field to text?

Question

Still adjusting to V8i...

With V8 you could remove Enter Data Fields by editing text and removing the << >> surrounding the text. How do you manually convert an EDF to normal text in V8i? Can it be done?

I've searched and searched and can't find a way to do this.

Hi, 
 This is a manual way of doing it... If you edit the text, then double click on the Enter Data Field, that allows you to edit the text. Once in there you could copy the text, exit out of the Enter Data Field box, and then paste the text back into the text editor box. 
 Another option is to change your text editor preference to "Dialog Box" and then you have the old editor. (Years ago, I had some issues with this old box, so I don't know if they have been fixed or not, so I don't suggest this as a permanent fix.)
